Both processes and threads are fundamental units of execution in a computer system, allowing for multitasking and efficient resource utilization. A process is an independent program in execution with its own memory space, while a thread is a smaller unit of a process that shares the same memory space as other threads within that process. Both can execute concurrently, enabling better performance and responsiveness in applications. Additionally, they both rely on the operating system for scheduling and management.
A thread is a sub process in other words one process can contain multiple threads.
No, a thread can't create aprocess, because the environment of the thread is a part of a process which created this thread.
No. A thread is a part of a process, but a process can not be part of a thread. Processes are always "at the top."
The same metaphor: the difference of a person (thread) and a family (process) A process has at least 1 thread and may have many threads, while 1 thread must live within a process
Execution context within a process is called Thread. Threads run, process does not. Every process starts with one thread.
yes, because if process is terminated then its related thread has no work. After completion of process the kernel generates a thread that will cancelled the thread in order to save the time and memory of CPU.
In the computer language a batch process is the method adapted by computers to execute a task instantly, without further influence from the user. This can include the printing of a document. On other hand, thread process are processes which contain several steps within the batch.
A thread is basically a lightweight process.
what process turn the yarn into thread
A thread.
Yes, the thread will also terminate if the process it is running in terminates. The thread is dependent upon the processes it is running. If the processes die the thread dies.
Thread is made into cloth by weaving.
